Diskpart does not UnHide

Using Disk Management​

1. Open Disk Management:
   • Press Windows + X and select Disk Management.
   []Assign a Drive Letter:
   • Find the Recovery partition (Partition 4 in your case).
   • Right-click on the partition and select Change Drive Letter and Paths....
   • Click Add and choose a drive letter from the dropdown menu.
   • Click OK to assign the letter and make it visible. If these options are grayed out or unavailable directly via the Disk Management interface, we need to use a combination of diskpart and attrib commands.

     Using diskpart and attrib Commands​

   []Open Command Prompt as Administrator:
   • Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt (Admin) or Windows Terminal (Admin).
   []Assign Drive Letter (if not already done):
   • Code:

      diskpart list disk select disk 0 list partition select partition 4 assign letter=N exit

   []Change Attributes Using attrib:
   • Open Command Prompt as Administrator (if not already).
   • Use these commands to change the attributes:
     Code:

     cmd attrib -s -h -r N:\

   []Check for Hidden System Files:
   • If there are hidden system files, you may want to unhide them by using the Command Prompt:
     Code:

     cmd attrib -s -h -r N:\*.* /S /D

     Using the Diskpart attributes volume clear Command​

   []Open Command Prompt as Administrator:
   • Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt (Admin) or Windows Terminal (Admin).
2. Use Diskpart to Clear Attributes:
   • Code:

     cmd diskpart list volume select volume (replace with the number corresponding to Partition 4) attributes volume clear hidden attributes volume clear readonly exit

     This will unhide the partition and make it visible without altering its partition type.
